Three hurt in two Lincoln County crashes

Three people were injured in two separate one-vehicle crashes Saturday in Lincoln County, according the Merrill Fire Department.

A one-vehicle rollover injured the driver, a 16-year-old girl, around 10 a.m. on Highway C just east of Highway K in the town of Merrill, said Merrill Fire Department Capt. Steve Hintze. She was taken by ambulance to Aspirus Wausau Hospital, Hintze said. Road conditions could have played a role in the crash, he said, with rural roads being slippery in spots.

The second crash happened just before 2 p.m. on Highway 107 just north of the Highway E bridge in the town of Rock Falls, Hintze said. A vehicle left the road and hit a tree, he said, injuring two people. One person was taken by ambulance to Ministry Good Samaritan Health Center in Merrill. The second person was flown by medical helicopter to Aspirus Wausau Hospital.

No other details were available.
